ALSA_AC3_DEVICE= alsa AC3/pass-though device name

ALSA_MIXER=default alsa control device name

ALSA_MIXER_CHANNEL=PCM alsa control channel name

only if oss is configured OSS_AUDIODEV=/dev/dsp oss dsp device name

OSS_AC3_AUDIODEV= oss AC3/pass-though device name

OSS_MIXERDEV=/dev/mixer oss mixer device name

OSS_MIXER_CHANNEL=pcm oss mixer channel name

setup.conf

Following is supported:

softhddevice.MakePrimary = 1 0 = no change, 1 make softhddevice primary at start

softhddevice.HideMainMenuEntry = 0 0 = show softhddevice main menu entry, 1 = hide entry

<res> of the next parameters is 576i, 720p, 1080i_fake or 1080i. 1080i_fake is 1280x1080 or 1440x1080 1080i is "real" 1920x1080

softhddevice.<res>.Scaling = 0 0 = normal, 1 = fast, 2 = HQ, 3 = anamorphic

softhddevice.<res>.Deinterlace = 0 0 = bob, 1 = weave, 2 = temporal, 3 = temporal_spatial, 4 = software (only 0, 1 supported with vaapi)

softhddevice.<res>.SkipChromaDeinterlace = 0 0 = disabled, 1 = enabled (for slower cards, poor qualität)

softhddevice.<res>.Denoise = 0 0 .. 1000 noise reduction level (0 off, 1000 max)

softhddevice.<res>.Sharpness = 0 -1000 .. 1000 noise reduction level (0 off, -1000 max blur, 1000 max sharp)

softhddevice.AudioDelay = 0 +n or -n ms

softhddevice.AudioPassthrough = 0 0 = none, 1 = AC-3

for AC-3 the pass-through device is used. softhddevice.AutoCrop.Interval = 0 0 disables auto-crop n each 'n' frames auto-crop is checked.

softhddevice.AutoCrop.Delay = 0 if auto-crop is over 'n' intervals the same, the cropping is used.

softhddevice.AutoCrop.Tolerance = 0 if detected crop area is too small, cut max 'n' pixels at top and bottom.

softhddevice.SkipLines = 0 skip 'n' lines at top and bottom of the video picture.

softhddevice.Suspend.Close = 0 1 suspend closes x11 window, connection and audio device. (use svdrpsend plug softhddevice RESU to resume, if you have no lirc)

softhddevice.Suspend.X11 = 0 1 suspend stops X11 server (not working yet)
